To overcome the decline in the number of students advancing to doctor of philosophy (PhD) courses in graduate schools in Japan, the government of Japan launched a new five-year program in 2021: Support for Pioneering Research Initiated by the Next Generation (SPRING). SPRING is overseen by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) as an integrated program that provides outstanding PhD course students financial support in an amount equivalent to their living expenses and research expenses, as well as career development and human development courses and support. The proposed advanced doctoral program for medical innovators at Tokyo University of Pharmacy and Life Sciences was selected for SPRING support under the theme of "Beef Up Toyaku talents TO go BEyond the borders" (BUTTOBE). This report describes the purpose and current activities of the BUTTOBE program.
为克服日本研究生院攻读哲学博士（PhD）课程的学生人数下降的问题，日本政府于2021年启动了一项新的五年计划：支持下一代发起的开创性研究（SPRING）。SPRING由日本科学技术振兴机构（JST）监管，作为一个综合项目，为优秀的博士生提供相当于其生活费用和研究费用的资金支持，以及职业发展和人员发展课程与支持。东京药科大学和生命科学大学提出的医学创新者高级博士项目，以“强化药科人才，跨越国界”（BUTTOBE）为主题，被选为SPRING支持项目。本报告介绍了BUTTOBE项目的目的和当前活动。
